member this.Contains : obj -> bool
Public Function Contains (index As Object) As Boolean

Parameters

index
Object

The name, identity, ID, or index to locate in the collection.

Returns

A Boolean that indicates whether the collection can be accessed by name, description, ID, or index. A value of true indicates that the collection can be accessed by using the syntax ExtendedProperties[index]. A value of false indicates that indexing cannot be used to retrieve items from the ExtendedProperties collection; using this property throws an exception.

Examples

The following code sample uses Contains method to determine if an extended property with the GUID given is in the collection. The method returns a Boolean.

namespace ExtendedProperties_Testing  
{  
    class Program  
    {  
        static void Main(string[] args)  
        {  
            // The package is one of the SSIS samples.  
            string mySample = @"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Samples\Integration Services\Package Samples\CalculatedColumns Sample\CalculatedColumns\CalculatedColumns.dtsx";  
            // Create the application, and load the sample.  
            Application app = new Application();  
            Package pkg = app.LoadPackage(mySample, null);  

            // Get the extended properties collection from the package.  
            ExtendedProperties myExtProps = pkg.ExtendedProperties;  

            // Use the ID.  
            Boolean hasGUID = myExtProps.Contains("{F3B7314E-DB1E-4CCA-A856-2E617A1B3265}");  
            Console.WriteLine("The extended property contains that GUID? {0}", hasGUID);  
            Console.WriteLine();

            Console.WriteLine()  
        End Sub  
    End Class

Sample Output:

The extended property contains that GUID? True
